LEFT-CENTER BIAS

These media sources have a slight to moderate liberal bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes) to favor liberal causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information, but may require further investigation. See all Left-Center sources.

Factual Reporting: HIGH

Notes: Daily Hive (formerly Vancity Buzz), is a local news and lifestyle media outlet that features 4 websites covering the Canadian cities of Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary and Toronto. In review, there is mild use of loaded words and all articles are sourced appropriately. Politically, the Daily Hive leans left-center with more coverage of stories that favor the left. Although not explicit, the Daily Hive has a negative view of right wing politicians such as Donald Trump. Overall, we rate the Daily Hive left-center biased based on story selection that favors the left and high for factual reporting. (D. Van Zandt 8/21/2017)
